transport documents

Transport documents are official papers used in the shipping and logistics industry to facilitate the movement of goods. They provide essential details about the shipment, such as the type and quantity of goods, the sender and receiver's information, and transport conditions. Common types include bills of lading, air waybills, and cargo manifests. These documents serve as proof of the contract between the shipper and carrier, confirm ownership, and ensure that the goods are delivered accurately and safely. Proper handling of transport documents is crucial for efficient supply chain management.
